June 6, 2024 – LG Day 6 – It Is Thursday and I Am Thirsty for Lather

  • Brush: Maggard Timberwolf Synthetic 24mm
  • Razor: Razorock Mamba 70 #CNC
  • Blade: Wizamet Super Iridium
  • Lather: Catie’s Bubbles – Irish Coffee
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann – Amazelnut
  • Fragrance: Kerosene – Follow

Coffee. Possibly the greatest beverage ever created. Today, our journey begins in a sweet, creamy mug of coffee with a splash of bourbon and a level of cream and sugar that would make any Bostonian Dunkin regular proud. It smells like the coffee milk I used to enjoy on vacations with my family growing up; as a little kid, I wanted to drink coffee like the adults, so we got a glass of milk with a little coffee and probably some sugar. If we were Rhode Islanders, we would have known about coffee syrup, which is even better. Then, to honor my partner’s favorite coffee flavor, we follow with a cornucopia of hazelnuts and vanilla, with some notes of woods and vetiver to round everything out – still sweet, though. Wouldn’t want to give up on our sweet coffee theme. If hazelnut coffee tasted like this smells, I might actually like drinking it. Finally, Kerosene Follow. Maple and vanilla keep the air of sweetness about, but bitterness comes through as well in this rather realistic coffee accord, so I can feel a little more grown-up and celebrate the type of coffee I actually drink. Just like me, dark and bitter. #FOF

For the daily challenge, I hereby present the second episode of PodShave, the podcast where you listen to me shave, with a concept that was definitely not ripped off from u/merikus. Don’t forget to watch the follow-up video the world has been waiting for.
